Galactic Pot-Healer is a science fiction novel by American author Philip K. Dick, first published in 1969. The story revolves around the life of Joe Fernwright, a skilled pot-healer (ceramic repairman) who lives in a dystopian future. A mysterious entity named Glimmung recruits Fernwright, along with other individuals from various planets, to assist in raising a sunken cathedral from the sea of Plowman's Planet. The book delves into themes of purpose, community, and faith, interweaving Dick's characteristic blend of humor and philosophical speculation.
